Una Kayak Safari
Ibro:No need to say for which of the two this is. With numerous waterfalls it definitely is an adrenaline rush and one of the best ways to experience the river Una first hand. For me though, it was a bit too much adrenaline in this form.

Place
Bosanska Krupa
Ibro:This is quite a popular place for cyclists, with beautiful canyon roads leading to this yet another small and charming city on the river Una about 30 kilometers from Bihac. Cycling is very popular in Bihac so you won't have trouble renting a bike.

Place
Plješivica
Ibro:For the more adventurous people there is hiking on the Pljesevica mountain. With the highest peak at 1657 meters it can be a challenge for some. There are of course lower peaks so choose the one that works best for you. I have to say, there is a possibility to encounter a bear so just yell sometimes to scare it away(i'm not kidding).

In one of the restaurants you can eat your food on a boat, while going for a ride.
